UK Unveils New Plan to Control Tailgating

WEKU
Published October 17, 2012 at 12:28 PM EDT

The University of Kentucky Tuesday unveiled a new tailgating plan that will take effect for Saturday's homecoming game against Georgia. The plan enlarges the area in which students are allowed to tailgate but sets several restrictions, including what times tailgating can take place and who is permitted to set up tents and live music. The school began crafting a long-term tailgating plan to address safety concerns after fights broke out and tailgaters were arrested before and after the UK-Western Kentucky game Sept. 15.
